187: Make Money in Your Sleep with John Lagoudakis


Listen Later

Ever dream of making money while you sleep?

That’s exactly what John Lagoudakis did for a good portion of his career. In this episode, he guides me through the process that made him one of the top affiliate marketers in the world within two years of starting up.

He’s been featured in the New York Times bestseller “Get Rich Click! The Ultimate Guide to Making Money on the Internet,” and also published several of his own books about marketing and online business.

John worked at McDonald’s and a painter’s assistant at his father’s business as a teenager, and came to realize that there are easier ways to make money.

He stumbled onto affiliate marketing, started testing the water, and was psyched when he made $2 in revenue for $1 in online advertising.

After that, he started funneling his time and money into the model, dodging sketchy business models along the way.

Though he’s mostly moved away from affiliate marketing, John now helps businessmen build marketing funnels that make sense. All without paying SEO companies hundreds or thousands of dollars monthly to see limited results.

In this episode, you’ll hear some of the tactics used by the world’s most visited sites to get you to pay attention to what matters. And you’ll hear it coming from an awesome Australian accent.
